Description
Access to this collection is generously supported by Arcadia funds. Library in the West's house at 240 South Griffin Avenue. There is a table in the center, which is covered with books, newspapers, a framed portrait, a lamp, a small bust, and a vase of flowers. One of the newspapers on the bottom shelf of the table is "The Youth's Companion." A rocking chair sits in front of the table. There is a footstool in front of the table with a pillow draped on it. A guitar is in the left corner of the room. There are pictures hanging on the walls and above the fireplace. There are vases and clocks on the mantle. At the right, there is a bookcase, which is partially covered with a curtain. A light fixture hangs in the center of the room. Text from negative sleeve: 1788. Los Angeles, California. 240 South Griffin Ave. 1899. 6 pictures of our library, practically all alike. I must have wanted some good pictures and made various exposures and angles. No one in them. All were taken same day apparently. 6 films.
